“Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot;
make it hot by striking” - William B. Sprague
Cleveland,

The mission has not changed.
In fact, the level of energy, motivation and determination by those of us
in every part of your Cleveland Cavaliers franchise has never been higher
or stronger.
We will play to win.
Every season. Every game. Every minute.
Why?
You.
The thousands of emails, letters, notes, phone calls and words of support
you shared with us this past summer has fueled every one of us with a
further heightened sense of will-power and grit to deliver the incredibly
loyal and passionate fans of the Cavaliers the ultimate prize.
That prize is an NBA championship.
No fan base deserves it more.
No city deserves it more.
Words will never express the gratitude and appreciation for the overwhelming
support and confidence you showered upon this franchise over the past
few months.
There will be nothing we do not explore.
There will be no amount of time, capital, brain-power or ingenuity we will
not invest if we believe it will contribute to our chances of success.
The train has left. It will not stop until it pulls into “Larry O’Brien Station #1”.
I am looking forward to enjoying the ride with you.
Onward and upward.

Tipoff: 7:30

pm, Saturday, Dec. 18, 2010

Tonight, the Cleveland Cavaliers will play the New York
Knicks for the first time this season. The Cavs have won
the last eight meetings against the Knicks, as well as the
last six contests played at Quicken Loans Arena. In last
yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three-game sweep of New York, the Cavs out-scored
the Knicks by an average of 112.3 to 96.7. The Cavs also
shot .552 from the field for the series, while holding the
Knicks to .457 shooting in the three games played in 200910. Cleveland trails the all-time series 100-76.
The Cavs have limited their miscues, averaging only 13.2
turnovers per game, which is the second fewest in the
league. Daniel Gibson is coming off a season-high 26 points
against the Heat on Wednesday. In that game, he shot 10-16
(.625) from the field, including 4-7 (.571) from behind the
three-point line, and dished out four assists in 39 minutes.
The Cavs will play another home game on Monday night
against Utah before going on the road to face Atlanta.
The New York Knicks have the second best record in the
Atlantic Division at 16-10 and are the second-highest
scoring team in the NBA at 108.8 points per game. The team
is led by Amare Stoudemire, who recently scored at least 30
points in nine consecutive games (Nov. 28 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Dec. 15), which
is now a Knicks record. During that span, he averaged 34.4
points and 10.8 rebounds per game. The Cavs and Knicks
will face off again on February 25 at The Q.

Cavaliers guard Daniel Gibson had a solid performance against the Heat
on Wednesday, finishing with a season-high 26 points.
